If not, can you go a bit deeper (explain what you want explained ;))

i have read the handbook and it doesnt say anythink ...
explain me what is their purpose, function, ...

I belive the rule number decides which rule to apply first and last, so you can use for example "block all connections from that host, but allow connections on that specified port from that host"-like rules.
